Short Term Major Medical Coverage

Description:
There are a variety of reasons you might need temporary health care coverage. Some common situations include: students who have recently graduated and are between coverage from parents and an employer, employees on an extended leave of absence or who are between jobs, people looking for an alternative to COBRA or new employees who aren’t eligible for group coverage. Short-Term coverage lets you choose from three major medical plan options with coverage periods ranging from one month to six months.

Features:

  • Coverage for major hospital, medical, and surgical services
  • Three deductible levels to choose from
  • Coverage from one month to six months
  • An additional six-month policy available, if needed
  • Single, two-person or family coverage available

This is a general description of coverage. It is not a statement of contract. Actual coverage is subject to the terms and conditions specified in the policy itself and enrollment regulations in force when the policy becomes effective.
